Abstract

Abstract A new solar radiation atlas for Europe up to the Ural and including neighbouring mediterranean territories will be produced by a European group of experts. The atlas will be oriented towards the needs of the users like solar architects and engineers, respecting the state of the art of their working field and their need of precise input data. rom best available measured solar data complemented with other meteorological data necessary for solar engineering, maps for the European continent will be produced. Satellite images will help to improve precision. TRY or DRY will be included. The ?hard copy? atlas will be complemented by a PC-package including a data base whith the mapping in digital form with high resolution, algorithms to calculate derived parameters and input files for engineering problems. The PC-package will be complemented by a users' guidebook. Information from past and ongoing CEC solar projects will be integrated.
